Christmas pics

We enjoyed Christmas this year, although Lewis and I were both fighting off infections which made things a little less fun than usual! Lewis did not get into opening gifts, but sure enjoyed the gifts once they were no longer hidden behind that boring paper.

He also learned to climb stairs at his grandparents' house and got lots of practice since we were visiting plenty of people with stairs over the last couple of weeks. He really loves climbing stairs.

Here's Lewis with his grandpa in Shepherdsville. He loves this ball!





















Here is Lewis at the Reitmeyers' celebration, sitting in a sea of unwrapped gifts.


















Aunt Ellen read Lewis his new book about Elmo.

















Along with the holiday cheer and our illnesses, Lewis also has developed some food issues. He would be happy on an all-liquid diet. Besides pretzels, there are few things he will eat consistently, and most of those foods have no real nutritional value. We keep putting a nice array of options before him, but most of it hits the floor (which is not so fun), and he is becoming more independent, not wanting to be fed like a baby, and yet not able to use a spoon himself. All of this adds to the fun of parenting these days. We're just grateful for Juicy Juice Harvest Surprise which helps him get fruit and vegetable servings each day. Fun times! :)
